Japanese Cosplayer Shares Secret for Perfect Crossplaying

Crossplay is a sub-segment of cosplay that has been growing in popularity. Essentially, it refers to a cosplayer dressing as a character of their opposite sex.

Perfecting the style can be a little tricky without heavy use of makeup and photoshop, but cosplayer @18_17_Ruccikais more the up to the challenge!

3Juuzou Suzuya – Tokyo Ghoul

4KAITO – Vocaloid

5Revy – Black Lagoon

6Eren Yaeger – Attack on Titan

7Okita Sougo – Gintama

While nailing the costume and expression of the character is vital, but @18_17_Ruccika claims that none of that matters if your posture is wrong.

@18_17_Ruccika says that as a woman, her natural posture results in her bottom out and chest raised. In order to successful crossplay as a male character, you would need to mimic the average male posture. This means stooping your back, dropping your shoulders, and pulling your pelvis.
